About

Welcome to the official blog of MixedMythologies on Etsy! I’m Grace and I create one-of-a-kind jewelry and unique handcrafted items inspired by mythology, archaeology, history, and folklore from around the world. I love the ancient world and its artifacts and many of my creative ideas are drawn from my training in archaeology and ancient languages, my trips to Old World museums, and my studies and experiences as a modern-day polytheist.

Here on this blog I’ll be showcasing current pieces, showing behind the scenes glimpses into my inspirations and creative processes, and sharing sales (and some exclusive coupon codes!) for my shop.

I first began making jewelry a number of years ago, just for myself and a few of my friends and family. I wanted high-quality pieces that were accurate to the mythological stories and histories I loved–so I started designing my own! It never occurred to me to sell to a wider audience until, during some of my national and international travels over the last couple of years, strangers began offering to buy on the spot some of my jewelry I was wearing at the time. I was flattered and more than a little surprised, but it served as the catalyst for me to finally open up a shop of my own and I love it.
